The results are in: climate change is real. This timely session will discuss the reasons why the climate is changing and the impact these changes are having on the future of the planet. But what does it mean for business?
The link between carbon emissions and global warming has been established, and companies are looking for ways to reduce their carbon footprint. Increased energy efficiency in commercial buildings and IT infrastructure is one strategy that companies are pursuing; alternatives to air travel are another. The implications for corporate real estate are immediate and imperative, and this session will highlight ways that your organisation can stop contributing to the problem and be part of the solution.
